Nuvei NA Balance Report

In the Nuvei NA Balance report, your activity is displayed according to the time interval you select. The opening and closing balance is displayed with each change, positive and negative. The data is displayed in red or green. Green indicates a positive change in your account, while red indicates a negative change. Numbers displayed in the report are rounded to the nearest hundredth.

The Nuvei NA Balance Report layout is built in levels, which includes the Balance level that displays the Opening balances (Settlement, Reserve, OCT Reserve) according to the breakdown period:

Daily – Activity: ‘Open Balance’ and ‘Close Balance’ per Date (where the opening balance is the close balance of previous date)
Monthly – Activity: ‘Open Balance’ and Closed Balance’ per Month (where the opening balance of 1st of the month and close balance of the last day of month)

Nuvei generates each report from data provided by card schemes, acquiring banks, and alternative payment service providers. While Nuvei makes every effort to update this data as soon as possible, the data is subject to change at any time. Nuvei takes no responsibility for the accuracy of this data beyond the date of publication.

Generating a Nuvei NA Balance Report

Financial reports can be generated for up to fourteen months prior to the current date.

The Nuvei NA Balance Report is generated through a daily process that aggregates all financial movement amounts produced by the billing process as well as all payout order amounts from the settlement process. These amounts are accumulated to calculate the end of day balance (Midnight EST), referred to as the Close Balance. The Close Balance of each business date becomes the Opening Balance for the following date.

See the Reports page that explains the basic format of the reports that can be generated using the Control Panel. The page also describes how to create, schedule, and manage queries.

To generate an Nuvei NA Balance report:

From the Menu bar, select Finance > Nuvei NA > Nuvei NA Balance.
Use the Report Filters to narrow the search parameters for your report.
Press Run Report. The report is displayed according to the filters you have selected.
